Tall Glass of Shame: Bad Commercials that We Love!

a blogumn by Zack Bunker
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how we all, at one point or another, try to find the best way to market ourselves. Looking for work or out in the world, we always want to put our best foot forward and find a way to make people “want us.” With that in mind, I’m constantly amazed at the pathetic crap that gets shoved down our throats each day as “commercials” and I am starting to think the bar keeps getting lower each day.
Of course by now you all know I have a soft spot for sick and bizarre moments of pop culture, so this week I went around to find some good examples of fun-filled, terrible commercials that are adored the world over. Okay, adored the internet over, by freaks like you and me.
We the masses, who enjoy other people’s sad attempts to make themselves or their products known that highly miss the mark. In another light though, maybe it worked, I’m showing you their crappy commercials now….
